Red: Warren Ellis and Cully Hamner

I could, of course, see Jackass 3-D because you can never see enough footage of people getting kicked in the balls. And in 3-D it might feel like I'm doing the kicking.

Hereafter looks cool, and I'll get around to seeing that shortly. Conviction has that kind of mid-October Oscar bait feel to it, where everyone is suicidal or finds salvation through tragedy or suffers from a tragic disease yet still finds time to teach us about life. But I'm not falling for that this weekend.

But the one I most want to see this weekend? Red. It's based on a Wildstorm Comics mini-series by Warren Ellis and Cully Hamner. I enjoyed the series, and I'd like to see the movie version succeed if only to give Wildstorm a nice parting gift as DC closes them down.
